southeast Kyiv, according to a report from the United Nations.
According to the report, soldiers from Ukrainian armed forces had
entered the care house in Stara Krasnianka on March 7, because the site
“had strategic value due to its proximity to an important road.”
The
report stated that on the morning of March 11, soldiers from
Russian-affiliated groups “attacked the care house with heavy weapons,
with patients and staff still inside.”
At the time, 71 patients
with disabilities and 15 staff, as well as Ukrainian soldiers, were in
the care house with no access to water or electricity.
OHCHR said that it is concerned that both Russian and Ukrainian soldiers
launched military operations near civilians but didn’t take any
measures to protect civilians, as required under international
humanitarian law." ZH
